Right. Republicans tend to get hung up on racial guilt. Democrats use this weakness to bully Republicans, but never get hung up themselves. Ron and Rand Paul dismiss and therefore do not get hung up on racial guilt.

I never thought I’d find FReepers so “concerned” about racism. Did Jesse Jackson take over the website from JimRob? Did Kweisi Mfume sign up?

Ain't that the truth. The left and the mushy right are in a battle to be the most politically correct and point out the 'racist'. Meanwhile race political, lobby and social groups of every race but white are pushing their agenda. Not to mention we have a GD America, Black Panther supporting white hater and his supporting cast in the White House. Time to go back to sleep.

“This kind of disavowal smacks of Obama sitting on Rev. Wright’s pew for many years and then telling us that he never heard him spout his anti-America rhetoric even once.”

Exactly. Obama successfully blew off the Rev. Wright issue just like Paul routinely does with the newsletter issue.

RIGHTLY DEFINED, YES. FReepers believe that racism does exist.

However, FR is not like Find-racism-under-every-tree Jesse Jerkson or Al Sharpie.

“I never thought I’d find FReepers so “concerned” about racism. “

Wow, that's a mighty Democrat thing to say.

Real conservatives detest racists. That's why we despise all the quota garbage and make fun of Jesse Jackson.
We believe God created everyone uniquely; but not based on skin color.

Everyone gets equal opportunity; skin color doesn't matter. No quotas, etc.
But we realize cultural stuff has done it's part to segment people by race in some circumstances, and to cause some bad behaviors (inner city crime). The differences arte not due to skin color however; it's the toxic environment some are used to.
A young white kid would react exactly the same way as a young black kid, all other things being equal.

Now when we run into a real racist; one that really believes someone is inferior due to race or skin color; we have a big problem with those people.

Sure did. Maybe he’s thinking second time is the charm.
